Ultraliberalism

Ultraliberalism is a political term for extreme liberal politics, which can be used in different contexts.

Market liberalism

Ultraliberalism often refers to an extreme form of market liberalism; in particular, market fundamentalism is also closely associated with ultra-liberal right-wing politics, which radically seek flexible labor markets and the marketization of public services.

Emmanuel Macron, a French President and centrist politician, has been accused of "ultra-liberal present for the rich" by some members of the yellow vest movement or the left wing of France. He labelled himself as a "centrist liberal", refusing observations by critics that he is an "ultra-liberal" economically.

Javier Milei, the Argentinian President and right-libertarian politician, is variously described as an ultraconservative or an ultraliberal.

Left-liberalism

Ultraliberalism, in some countries, including the United States, could mean radical, "woke", or left-leaning social liberalism and progressivism; in this context, "ultra-liberal" often has a contrasting meaning to "ultra-conservative".

Some American leftists or socialists, such as "Squad" politicians, are referred to as "ultra-liberal" in the American political context.
